Nikki Haley, former governor of South Carolina, is going to run for president. She's expected to announce on Feb 15th. What do you think of her and her chances? Nikki Haley planning Feb. 15 launch for 2024 White House bid
I expect Nikki would be more like her than say Thatcher. She stands a good chance of getting Republican nomination, if Trump doesn't. I think the women's vote will be deciding factor. She's a lot better than most other potential Republican candidates, and might be acceptable to the more conservative democrats. That makes her scary.
Don't take me too seriously, my comment was following Lizzy approving a budget from a gormless chancellor, who had not even telephoned the bank of England prior to preparing it. He was just going to borrow eyewatering sums of money for a short term public popularity. If you support her, I wish Nikki every success. Hopefully she will not be too much like Thatcher. Her policies of privatisation were good at quelling the greedy unions, but the long term results have been catastrophic.
Nikki is anti-LGBT. "They’re talking about this bill in Florida, the Don’t Say Gay bill, where gay wasn’t even mentioned, but you know what it did say? It said you cannot talk about any sort of sexual preference or gender pronouns before 3rd grade,” she said. “I didn’t think that went far enough.” “We didn’t have sex-ed until 7th grade. And even then, you had to have your parent sign a permission slip. And my dad didn’t sign it.” - Nikki Haley. That explains why you're such a prude, Nikki.
And she doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning. She'd never get the party nomination as long as Trump is running, and even if she somehow did, the voting public would consider her too closely associated with the former to vote for her.
All she will do is dilute the pool of candidates, giving Trump an advantage - the same number will vote for him no matter -
Whether or not she gets nominated she is on the gravy train of running for President. It is ALWAYS about the money.
They never gave dad a rifle, just a .45 sidearm and a big red cross target on his helmet. Imagine, being just out of high school, just 18, being shipped off to 6 months of medical surgical training to be an army medic in combat. He had a few stories about the carnage, but never really talked about it, other than "them guys never had a chance, no plasma, no transport, if they were lucky we had some morphine - and it was bye bye, pal..". Thinking back, he was a walking case of functional ptsd, but half those guys were...
She's definitely got something going on...and it sure isn't about health care, feeding the poor, education or fixing our worn out infrastructure.
